OmniSwitch 6855
HARDENED LAN SWITCH

Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch™ 6855 Hardened LAN Switch (HLS) models are industrial grade,
managed, Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet switches designed to operate reliably in harsh
electrical environments and severe temperatures.

This superior, rugged hardware design, The target applications for these versatile
coupled with the widely deployed and LAN switches are power utilities, trans-
field-proven Alcatel-Lucent Operating portation and traffic control systems,
System (AOS), makes the OmniSwitch 6855 industrial factory floor installations,
ideal for industrial and mission-critical video surveillance systems and outdoor
applications that require wider operating installations, all of which require gigabit
temperature ranges, more stringent EMC/ backbone connectivity.
EMI requirements and an optimized
feature set for high security, reliability,
performance and easy management.
